About Escan Marina
Property records list Escan Marina as a 32-storey residential building in Dubai Marina, developed by Escan Real Estate through its subsidiary Tharwaa Escan Investments. The project was completed in August 2016 and holds 397 units in a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments.
Developer, storey count, unit count and completion-date figures above come from a single property-research source (Propsearch, cross-referencing Dubai Land Department open transaction data) rather than independently corroborated across two or more portals. Broader UAE listing portals (Bayut, Property Finder, Dubizzle) either blocked automated access or had no dedicated page for this building at the time of research. Prospective buyers, renters or owners should confirm current details directly against a live portal listing or the building's own management office.
Location & Nearby Landmarks

Nearby buildings include Manchester Tower, Marina Park and Marina Pearl, all within about 0.1 to 0.2km, with Stella Maris Tower, Marina Star, The Zen Tower and Trident Waterfront a short walk further on.

Transportation & Access

Drive-time estimates are sourced from propsearch.ae (Google Maps-based, fastest route under typical traffic); no Escan Marina-specific walking distance to either metro station was confirmed.
Rental & Price Trends
Dubai Land Department open-data records show 50 recorded sale transactions for the building. A recent transaction on 26 August 2026 recorded a 660 sq ft one-bedroom flat sold for AED 880,000, about AED 1,330 per sq ft, while a 1,188 sq ft two-bedroom unit was recorded in a July 2026 transfer at roughly AED 1.6 million. The building is registered with the Land Department under the name 'Escan Marina Tower,' a name worth knowing if it appears in listings or transaction records separately from 'Escan Marina.' The tower was originally launched under a different developer and name in 2005 before being completed under its current developer and name in 2016.
STR Income Potential
Dubai Marina is one of Royale Stays' core managed areas, alongside Palm Jumeirah, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay, and demand for professionally managed holiday homes across the district has historically been strong given its waterfront setting and walkable amenities. Royale Stays' own managed Dubai Marina portfolio has generated gross Airbnb income in the region of AED 120,000 to 165,000 per year for a one-bedroom apartment, with net income of roughly AED 80,000 to 110,000 per year after fees and costs, according to Royale Stays' own Dubai Marina rental income guide. Every short-term rental in Dubai requires a DTCM holiday home permit, and Royale Stays manages the permit application and day-to-day operations for owners, including those based overseas, for a fee starting from 15%. See Royale Stays' Dubai holiday home permit guide for the current permit process.
